Even when she was 15 years younger, I still would have needed some serious beer goggles to take her home.

She is the thinnest person I have ever seen who was not in hospice.

We have always maintained she could use a cheeseburger or two.

Don’t come between the elite and their cheap labor.

While cheap labor may seem like the issue, it won't do the GOPe any good to have cheap labor that voted Democrat.

The idea is to have a large population base in the US that is largely ignorant of how government is supposed to function, the limits that are supposed to be imposed on government, and that we, the People have the power to demand less from government (less intrusion, less regulation, less invasion of privacy).

While the Government schools have done a smashing job of instilling this ignorance in two generations of students, it simply isn't fast enough for those who would make us all serfs on their fiefdoms. If swarms of people who have no concept of the founding principles are imported, that might sway the course of the battle for the Republic and ensure its destruction.

The Carpetbaggers knew there are fortunes to be made in the midst of chaos and suffering, and the new breed are no different, except that they are willing to impose chaos and suffering and a breakdown in social order on anyone for a profit. They have no distinct loyalty to anyone--nor any nation--but themselves.

I wasn’t referring to Coulter on this issue, but her career as a whole.

Ann is an attorney.

Little known fact:

All attorneys an physicians must sign their names like retards telekinetically guiding Bob Doles right hand or they lose their license. FACT!

I love Ann too. I think she supported Romney because there was no one else and she wanted fellow conservatives to get behind Romney too. Romney lost because of a computer glitch that failed to get out the vote on election eve.

I don’ think the votes matter to the oligarchs. On their side of the ledger, not much changes under a Democratic administration. Social issues, yes, but for what counts to them, business rolls along just the same. Corporate profits go up, banks get bigger, the rich get richer, and everybody else wallows.

Romney lost because he didn’t generate enthusiasm among conservatives, went soft on Obama in the latter debates, and because Obama silenced the Tea Party with DOJ and IRS, and used the stimulus to buy votes.

There is a basic point, here, and it is not the one the writer intends to convey.

The Left has gotten away with a very gross form of intimidation by the use of nasty sounding epithets in place of rational argument. They have succeeded in suppressing most dissent by calling names, "racist," "bigot," "nativist," etc., with almost no challenge in the mass media. Now, surely, we will either push back or watch silently neutered, as the last vestiges of 1,000 years of Western Cultural development are stripped away.

If "racism" is to be deplored, it must surely be more tightly defined. One can agree that someone's race is no justification for mistreatment. But there is obviously nothing wrong for a free people to identify with those with whom they share a common history, common values, temperment & identity. Absolutely nothing wrong with that.

We need to stop allowing fantasy pursuing egalitarian collectivists (whether they call themselves "Communists" or "Liberals") to make people ashamed to defend their normal preferences. To defend the ethnic qualities that once made Americans a nation. (And anyone who denies that America, even as a concept, was the achievement of a particular people, lies in the face of history.)

We have allowed cultists, like those of the writer of this piece, to completely frame a debate that we could otherwise win, in terms of a Leftist "daydream," that is actually an insult to all of us, of every race, faith and personality, by forcing us to ignore the qualities that make us unique.

Enough!

She is STILL supporting Romney. I think she is in love with him.

I thought the same thing. If she just supported the guy for Prez. I could get past that as we all have a right to our opinion.
But this lady drank the kool-aid. I think she has a serious crush on Romney, and if I was Mrs. Romney, I’d be watching out for the boiled rabbit.
